I tried a One Blade Core for the first time yesterday and was a bit underwhelmed. I can’t work out whether that was due to the FHS-10 blade (which is not my favourite blade), the plasticky feel or the razor, or the movement of the blade through the floating blade concept.

I’m toying with the idea of purchasing an Occam’s OREN and am aware that it also has a floating blade design....

If you have got one, a report would be good.]]>2Cobra classicFri, 26 Oct 2018 23:43:08 +0000https://www.atgshaving.com/threads/cobra-classic.12000/

I am really looking forward to the blackland vector. I will buy it.

I absolutely love my cobra classic. I am just tentative using the cobra as I will not be able to replace it. If I drop it for example.

I think the the cobra may be my favourite razor. For a daily shaver it’s a bit impractical due to the aggressive nature of the razor and very hazardous blade loading.

I was thinking of trying to find out who owns the intellectual property of cobra classic design. They don’t seem...

The clincher was being able to buy it through Executive Shaving and use the 10% discount code for ATG members.
I shall post a review after a weeks use.

I wouldn't say I have found the "one", because that is not my aspiration, rather this razor fulfils the need for a high quality product that provides as good a shave as you can get, and suits my need to shave quickly on a weekday.
There is always a tension amongst us between form and function, vintage and modern; utilitarianism and the love of a hobby. Some of these tensions elevate the mundanity of a daily...

https://www.atgshaving.com/threads/gem-mmoc-as-everyday-razor.10466/invalid@example.com (Z-2)Z-2

I am trying to made my MMOC as my go-to razor for my shaving routine. It shaves me quite well, except my chin and jawline.
Stubble on my chin is very thick, and I have problems to remove it With my DE razors I use blade buffing, which works, but with GEM is not so easy, because of head profile of the razor.
So, I need to put a little pressure on these places, which cause me rubbing and irritation After that I should not shave for 1-2 days, to heal the skin

"The brass General prototype shaves amazing, but we have decided to tweak the handle for the brass version to better balance the weight. The handle modification will make it one diameter and not tapered design."

"The handle will have a smooth finish, which is not slippery at all. We are going to order prototypes of the modified handle in a few weeks. We will then aim to go to...

Another member asked me if I can give a review of this razor so here goes.
I bought the Minigoose from Maggard Razors (only supplier} about two months ago as a second meaning it had some minor scratches on it. Instead of paying 165usd I paid 139usd. I was able to polish out the scratches with polish and 0000 steel wool. I took several days but the head looks brand new. After trying the Personna injector blades which I don't particularly like I switched to the...
